Few months ago, I was in Salvador, the capital of Bahia, a northeastern state in Brazil. Salvador is known for its Portuguese colonial architecture, Afro-Brazilian culture and a tropical coastline.

The Pelourinho neighborhood is its historic heart, with cobblestone alleys opening onto large squares, colorful buildings and baroque churches.

Walking around Pelourinho was fun, because of the many influences from Africa, especially the Yoruba religion. I walked by some vendors selling Acarajé, which is their version of Akara. I tried it once, and I didn't like it. Nothing compared to Naija's Akara, though Brazilians enjoy it, I tell them "Wait till you try Naija's Akara". Even coca-cola dey use Acarajé for their ads.

I spoke Yoruba to the guy talking about Orisha, and of course he had no clue of what I was talking about, they just want money. lol He wanted to do some cleansing or something like that to me, I said lai lai, no be me. lol

I met some other interesting people which you can see in the video below.

Naijamanyoutube its been a while oga mi. Umbanda, Santeria, Candomble, Orixa(Orisha), Xango(Shango), Oxun(Oshun), Voodoo, Ifa, Iemanja(Yemoja), Ogum(Ogun), Babalao(Babalawo) etc.. are all still widely practiced across Latin America, Carribean, and as far as North America. I also learnt they make sacrifice(Ebo) as well. I wonder how the Yoruba kept it going despite hudreds of years of the trans atlantic slave trade. I even thougt as widely speculated that Yoruba is one of the recognised languages in Brazil, because I learnt they use yoruba language to perform those spiritual rites.
God bless the Yorubas!

Why is it that they love wearing knicker in Brazil so much most of their videos I have watched almost all the people are on knicker

Our yoruba brothers in diaspora are representing us well, they're disciplined and we'll cultured.

We're only left with yoruba Muslims here who have sworn never to let Nigeria progress with propaganda and tribalism...its very shameful
